running 40:00 [2]
Felt good enough to try a run. I went to Clinton and ran the trails. I still feel a little weak and lack much of an appetite, but the run was nice.
The highlight of the run was meeting a timber rattlesnake on the trail. I don't remember ever seeing a rattlesnake before. It was in the middle of the trail and didn't want to move. Eventually it slithered toward the side of the trail and I decided to run by. I scared it and it coiled up, raised its head, at rattled at me. That was kind of scary.
I saw a bunch of the Trail Hawks when I was done. Allen L had spotted a rattlesnake earlier on the trail to Sanders Mound. The snake I saw was on the white trail at a point where it crosses an old stone wall.
